Can you run a live CD on the machine? You mentioned Memtest but I’m wondering if an Ubuntu one would work.
Steam hardware survey but that will skew towards gamers. That said, it would be a good indicator on how compatible Wayland is.
If sellers can prove that they never touch a customers home address they’re less exposed to data breaches which might look good on for insurance companies.
Honestly, this sounds it something a shipping company could provide. When you go to use Paypal for example, you get redirected to their site, put in your details and they complete the transaction without the seller knowing your financial data. The same could be done with shipping.
This is the most infuriating part. The best solution to these issues is to remove the need to move in the first place, and WFH for the people that want it and who can do it removes a huge amount of traffic with comparably little cost (company laptop, a screen and maybe a desk and chair, many of which could just be taken from the office).
My preference would be for WHOIS data to be private unless the owner wants to reveal who they are. I do think it makes sense to require the owner to provide that information to the registrar so it can be obtained by the courts if needed.
I wish we had something like temporary/alias e-mail addresses for physical addresses. So you go to ship something, you provide a shipping alias which the shipping company then derives the true address from and ships the item. The moment the true address is revealed, the alias expires and can no longer be used. This way only the shipping company gets to know your real address and that is ideally discarded once the order has been completed. So forward shipping without the extra step.
They will not… combine us? Just forget about the whole “almost every community is on lemmy.ml and lemmy.world” thing. :P
OOTL what’s the risk of Lethal Company? The cray amounts of mods that people pull down or something else?

Nah. He’s a moron. I bet he couldn’t even punch me into a pit.
This is why people say not to use USB for permanent storage. But, to answer the question:
- From memory, “nofail” means the machine continues to boot if the drive does not show up which explains why it’s showing up as 100GB: you’re seeing the size of the disk mounted to / .
- If the only purpose of these drives is to be passed through to Open Media Vault, why not pass through the drives as USB devices? At least that way only OMV will fail and not the whole host.
- Why USB? Can the drives ve shucked and connected directly to the host or do they use a propriety connector to the drive itself that prevents that?
What happens if the instance which hosts the community is down but other instances are online? I just made a post to a community on an instance that doesn’t exist anymore, but will other instances get that post, or is it reliant on the instance which hosts the community coming back online?
The general idea that somebody who works a lot of hours is a good/hard worker in contrast to the amount of work actually completed.
That’s not really fair on Discord. The article mentions they received an injunction to remove the content so they were forced to do this. Anybody in the same jurisdiction would have to do the same:
“Discord responds to and complies with all legal and valid Digital Millennium Copyright Act requests. In this instance, there was also a court ordered injunction for the takedown of these materials, and we took action in a manner consistent with the court order,” reads part of a statement from Discord director of product communications Kellyn Slone to The Verge.
It does have to do with being a walled platform though. You as the Discord server owner have zero control over whether or not you are taken down. If this was Lemmy or a Discourse server (to go with something a little closer to walled garden) that they ran, the hosting provider or a court would have to take them down. Even then the hosting provider wouldn’t be a huge deal since you could just restore backup to a new one Pirate Bay style. Hell, depending on whether or not the devs are anonymous (probably not if they used Discord), they could just move the server to a new jurisdiction that doesn’t care. The IW4 mod for MW2 2009 was forked and the moved to Tor when Activision came running for them so this isn’t even unprecedented.
They cry about not being able to serve ads while serving ads that are straight malware and scams. It’s especially funny when a platform goes out of their way to censor (suppress ad revenue) on videos which have even a chance of being misinformation and then proceed to play back to back ads of somebody selling their get rich quick webinar.
I kinda get it. The host has complete access to VM memory and can manipulate it without detection. Both of those games are free to play as well so cheating is more of an issue. I have no idea what Back4Blood’s justification would be though.
That said it’s a PITA and given the massive attack surface of Easy Anti Cheat it becomes easier to justify running in VMs where you can isolate things and use snapshots if there is ever a breach.
It’s a gaming machine. I mainly use a gaming VM with GPU passthrough under Proxmox, but the anti-cheat is some games (Fortnite and The Finals) don’t allow you to run them in VMs. So I run those games in Windows directly under a standard user account as a compromise.
UEFI or legacy BIOS? I recently installed Windows 11 on a machine with Proxmox on NVME but installed Windows on a SATA SSD. Windows added its boot entry to the NVME SSD but did not get rid of the Proxmox boot entry.
I’ve definitely had the same issue as you on in the past on legacy BIOS and when I worked in a computer shop 2014-2015 we always removed any extra drives before installing Windows to avoid this issue (not like the other drives had an OS anyway).
I was wondering if it would be possible to help clear this section up: > However, the internal necessity perpetually to be, is inseparably connected with the necessity always to have been, and so the expression may stand as it is. “Gigni de nihilo nihil; in nihilum nil posse reverti,”30 are two propositions which the ancients never parted, and which people nowadays sometimes mistakenly disjoin, because they imagine that the propositions apply to objects as things in themselves, and that the former might be inimical to the dependence (even in respect of its substance also) of the world upon a supreme cause. The quote is from The Critique of Pure Reason, First Analogy, Principle of the Permanence of Substance.
I think they’re saying this:
- The idea of something being permanent means it has always been and always will be.
- You can’t seperate these two ideas: permanence requires both.
- People at the time of writing sometimes try to remove the “always has been” part as it conflicts with or removes the need for a creator (something which is permanent that created non-permanent things).
- These people applied the idea of permanence to things in themselves as if it were possible to perceive things in themselves, rather than their representations.
I suspect I could be wildly off here.
With 70 zero-days uncovered so far this year, 2023 is on track to set a new record.

Inspired to make this post from: https://lemmy.ml/post/2769734
Do you have any memories that spring to mind when you see old wallpapers?
- The green rolling hills of XP remind me of when I started using computers, watching Insider Secrets on CNET and downloading everything that appeared on download.com, then trying to make Windows XP look like Vista
- Vista’s of when I installed every possible custom theme imaginable and spent half the time rebooting from BSODs while trying to play Zombie Escape in CSS
- Windows 7 of what felt like peak Windows and when I got my first gaming PC and the joys of Bootcamp (never forget the Windows 7 Beta fish wallpaper),
- Mac OS Leopards wallpaper of my first Mac,
- Ubuntu 9.04: The classic Ubuntu where I had no idea what I was doing and I had no idea how to get Wi-Fi and sound to work,
- Ubuntu 10.04 of when I first started running Minecraft servers and using Linux, not to forget glorious GNOME 2,
- Debian 6 of when I started learning Debian and the fun that was trying use PPAs and custom repos on Apt and running servers in VirtualBox,
- Mac OS Mavericks: Nice network share, would be a shame if it stopped responding and you had to reboot… again,
- Windows 8 (not 8.1)… I don’t actually remember these . I used a screenshot from DayZ looking down at Elektro back when I ran Windows 8 consumer preview and the release candidate.
It's not the year of Linux on desktop; it's the year of Linux on a handheld.
Red Hat made being a 1:1 clone hard. So AlmaLinux is pivoting and speeding up.
